Mediæval Coif

Come closer, friend, and look at the colour on this one... yellow ochre linen, warm as candlelight, lined in natural linen and stitched throughout with green wool thread. The hand stitching alone is worth your attention... cross stitch along the hem, blanket stitch along the face, and whip stitched ties to secure it beneath the chin, each one placed by hand as it would have been in any good medieval household worth its salt. Cut true to the early medieval fashion, machine stitched for strength and finished by hand for the look that speaks of quality to those who know it. Suitable for the reenactor who will accept nothing less than honest period accuracy. This one comes in a single size large... for most heads are worth the covering, my friend, whatever secrets they keep beneath.
